Belfast: State of the City II - 2005

Held in May 2005 at Belfast's Waterfront Hall, this second conference focused on the 'To Do' list which emerged from the 2004 conference where an 18 point priority list for the city was created. Since the initiation of the 'To Do', a series of sub-actions where added as a result of stakeholder responses over the last year.

At the conference delegates looked at reports prepared by Regional Forecasts Ltd for Belfast City Council - Belfast: City Region and Belfast: the Economic Future. The conference was brought to a close with a presentation from Greg Clark, City and Region Development Advisor, on city regions, development agencies and economic development.
